Italian Police Lamborghini Accident (2009)

Chris sent me some photos of an Italian Lamborghini Policia (police) car. Below is what happened as described by the BBC (British version of CNN):

Italian police have crashed their most valuable patrol car, a 165,000-euro (£150,000) Lamborghini.

The accident happened near the northern Italian town of Cremona where it was on display at a student jobs fair.

Reports say the car swerved to avoid another vehicle which crossed into its path, plowing into two stationary cars. It was damaged beyond repair.

One of the two officers in the vehicle at the time of the incident suffered a broken rib, the other received bruises.

The Lamborghini car, painted in the Italian police force’s blue and white colors, was a gift to the force from the car makers in 2004.

The six-speed luxury vehicle with a 500-horsepower engine is designed to go from zero to 100km/h (60mph) in four seconds.

My guess is that they were driving on the wrong side of the road! Only RIGHT is right.
